The Last Leaf: How does the symbol help to convey the theme?

English
1 answer:
Sonja [21]3 years ago
4 0

In "The Last Leaf", Sue thinks that she will die when the last leaf from the old climber fell. The falling leaves in the climber signify the hard times of life. Just like Autumn when leaves fell from the trees, there are times in our life when we feel sad or depressed. But when the autumn is over, new leaves grow, just like that when the depressed rimes are over, we have all the colours of life again.

11. In what way are the poems "Chicago" and "My Mother<br><br> Enters the Work Force" similar?
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

Both poems speak of hardworking people who dedicate themselves to their activities and work for their own survival, but remain lively and admirable.

Explanation:

"Chicago" is the poem written by Carl Sandburg that presents the city of Chicago as a place of hardworking, responsible and lively people. In this poem the author agrees with the idea that Chicago has many problems such as violence, crimes and poverty, but that does not erase the fact that the inhabitants of Chicago are admirable people.

"My Mother Enters the Work Force" was written by Rita Dove and features a woman who is forced to work to support her daughter and herself. This woman's salary is very low and although she and her daughter live with limitations and difficulties, she is very lively and dedicated to the responsibilities she has.

How did Frederick Douglass help shape America and the world around h
disa [49]

Answer:

After that conflict and the Emancipation Proclamation of 1862, he continued to push for equality and human rights until his death in 1895.

An advocate for women’s rights, and specifically the right of women to vote, Douglass’ legacy as an author and leader lives on. His work served as an inspiration to the civil rights movement of the 1960s, and his name even became part of 21st-century political discourse after he was referenced in a speech by President Donald Trump for Black History Month 2017.

By 1843, Douglass had become part of the American Anti-Slavery Society’s “Hundred Conventions” project, a six-month tour through the United States. Douglass was physically assaulted several times during the tour by those opposed to the abolitionist movement.

In 1858, radical abolitionist John Brown stayed with Frederick Douglass in Rochester, New York, as he planned his raid on the U.S. military arsenal at Harper’s Ferry, part of his attempt to establish a stronghold of free slaves in the mountains of Maryland and Virginia. Brown was caught and hanged for masterminding the attack, offering the following prophetic words as his final statement: “I, John Brown, am now quite certain that the crimes of this guilty land will never be purged away but with blood.”
